Arizona, Tucson Mission

Hey all!

We usually don't get to E-mail on non P-day's, but I'm
told this is an exception! This is my reassignment letter, I will be
serving in the Arizona, Tucson mission until my Visa comes through! I'm
so excited!!! There are a pair of Sister Missionaries in my mission going
to Cape Verde, and they leave on the 10th and arrive in Cape Verde on the
13th. That's a lot of traveling! My flights will probably be a bit
shorter :) My companion got his Visa as well, so he's going straight to
Goiania!

My district has been through a bit of an emotional roller
coaster today. One of the Elders in our district went home today.
He said that there is something going on at home that he has to help with, and
as soon as it is resolved he'll be back in the field. I don't think we
realized how close we had grown together over the past month. It was so
neat to see the district pull together to support him and one another.
After that, we all got our reassignments or itineraries, which was so
exciting! I think that as a whole our district is going to sleep pretty
well tonight, it's been a long day! I am loving my mission more with
every day, and can't wait to serve the people in Tucson!

I'm so glad that your cut-overs are going well Dad! I
hope that you get a new contract secured soon, too. Do you think H. F. will
bring you on again?

I have had some interesting insights lately too, but
I'll write it up in a letter so I can give you some more details. Watch the mailbox for my letter!

I love you all so much, and I hope that you can feel that. The
hour we get each week feels like hardly enough time to keep in touch with those
we love, but it's what I have. I do love you tremendously.
